In the matter of recollection, Gen. Wallace
said that in 1876 he went with one OF Ave who
bore message from Gen. Scott to Zack Tay-
lor, and that there were two men with Gen
Taylor, one Of whom WAS jefferson Davis.
The bearer of the message was handing the
package across table TO Taylor, who was so
phlegmatic and slow that Mr. Davis spirit
edly took hold of the package, tore it open, ex-
amined, and reported the contents. He had
never seen Mr.. Davis before, and did not
again until 1855, when, as he walked into
the war department at Washington, SIR.
Davis saw him pass the strong light Of a
window, and as he approached the then sec
retary of war took him by the hand, asked
him IL his name was Wallace. II he had be.

wasnot present at the conference alluded to.
